Portmoak Expedition - Day 2
A claggy morning cleared just after lunch, when Don, Jenny & Paul all had good hill soaring flights, coming down just as the lower damp clouds closed in.
However, an hour later and it all cleared again, allowing Phil, Mick & Mike to have even better flights in weak wave up to 4,000ft, only coming down to be fed & watered by our great hosts.
The scenery here is just fantastic, especially when flying out over Loch Leven which runs alongside the airfield. All our flights have been from a winch launch as this is sufficient to make a dash for the ridge.
Don has informed us that he will shortly be putting his newly written poem on the blog ... apparently relevant to this expedition ... you have been warned!
